Superb

A good location for the price and for only needing a place to sleep, it serves its purpose.

I enjoyed the room, the aesthetic and architecture were a lot older which I appreciated, and there was ample space for a lone traveler and the bed was very comfortable.

The shower isn't attached to the room but I think I was the only one to use it so I never had problems waiting for someone to be done. I will say, since I went there in the winter time the shower room can get quite cold!

Great cost benefit, very close to everything you need!

Location was great, very close to the train station and main attractions. The staff very gentle, bed was very comfortable, and the shower was amazing.

I felt there could be more light in the room, I wanted to read and there wasn't enough light during the night. Other than that, an amazing place!

An old Italian hotel with character

Hotel Portacavana has character with its painted wardrobe and art. My room was a single but had everything such as tea and coffee making, small very quiet fridge, desk, wardrobe and comfortable bed. Christian provides a warm welcome and information on local events. He is very quick to respond when there are any problems. Loved the exposed beans and history of the place.

For some the flights of stairs up may be an issue and the shared bathroom but I dont mind the exercise and everyone was considerate with their time.

Good

is in a nice historical building with nice antique furniture. Spring bed can be a bit uncomfortable for some. But i am fine, slept well, maybe i am so tired after the long train ride. when i arrived, coincided with Barcolana- a big event here in Trieste, everywhere, and just below are pubs with DJ playing good music. is nice! The next morning, woke up by nice street instrumental music too.. is ok and nice for me.

Smell of Smoking downstairs flows up into the room. No Lift, my room on 3rd floor. with heavy luggage, i cannot managed. So i just backpack up and left my luggage at 1st floor reception. Christian is kind to bring up for me the next day. But i have to struggle to bring it down because Christian is not at hotel too early at 8am.

Fantastic location, wonderful receptionist.

The hotel has great historic features, located in a vibrant area with lovely places for eating and drinking. From the hotel you can reach easily main attractions by foot or take local transport. The reception is very helpful and polite. Thank you for being such a great, courteous and helpful host!

Absolutely recommended for short stays

The hotel is in the very city centre of Trieste close to all main cultural buildings an social entertainment places. Staff was great and helpful and the room clean and not noisy. Comfortable bed and good room.

There was no air conditioning in the room and we were in August; there was a ventilator however, which, for a one star hotel, I can accept. The bathroom was really tiny and you had to be quite slim to enter!

Nice centrally located rustic hotel

The location is great! If you like a rustic setting with character, this hotel is for you! The owner was very helpful and friendly. Beautifully decorated room.

The only small problem I has was with was the sockets. It was not so easy to fit a big plug.

Cute little place in the trendy part of Trieste

Location is now the "trendy" part of town, with lots of good locals hops for food, coffee, forgotten things. The decor is sweet and old fashioned. And of course the price is right.

One side, the side I was on, opens to a noisy street. Because there is no a/c I had yo keep the windows open. I have a great pair of ear plugs and that helps. I've stayed here before so I know what it's like and I choose to stay again. However, in the middle of summer, I'd pay more for a/c
